The offenders are referred to NASP by some 500 criminal and juvenile courts throughout the United States. As a result, these and all of our statistics are both reliable and verifiable.

Assns., maybe, but not asses. Well, given that they're from an industry association, I doubt the statistics were pulled right out of their asses. Assns., maybe, but not asses.
